After being mesmerised by the dazzling display of the modernistic buildings of beijing, i was actually blown away by the grand opening for the olympics... I was simply amazed by the how the chinese made the effort to create such a wonderful opening ceremony.. which kind of like symbolised a beginning of a great few weeks of sports ahead.. It's utterly a monumental success!

After watching day 1 of the olympics, china seems to have fast becoming a great dominance for sports over the years.. They are practically so well-versed in every sports and nth seems to be able to stop them from clean-sweeping all the golds.. When china won their first gold in the women's weightlifting competition, i noe i cant miss the bball game bet china and usa.. Yes.. the team from USA has all the NBA starlets, including the famous kobe bryant and on papers, it's no doubt a clear victory for them but still.. with yao ming leading china and home ground advantage.. i juz know the chinese is gg to put up a good fight..

And indeed.. the chinese did very well for the first 2 quarters.. even forcing the game to a 29-29 scoreline with their highly accurate 3 pointers and free throw.. however, the american managed to wear them down and eventually taking the game at 101-70.. With the chinese wonderful display of 3 points shooting, the american shows why are the tournament favourites with fanciful skills and ligthening pace.. For someone who dun really watch bball like mi, this is simply an awesome and phenomenal match..

With the epl starting soon nxt wkend, i cant help but feel excited with the amount of competitive yet entertaining sports happening aound the world.. =)!

Life goes on...
